Colesterol

Zetia is an anti-hyperlipidemic medication which is used to lower cholesterol levels. Ezetimibe improves levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and apolipoprotein B. It does not affect the absorption of triglycerides or fat-soluble vitamins.

Zocor is a powerful hypolipidemic drug (statin) used in combination with a low-cholesterol and low-fat diet to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglyceride levels and to raise good cholesterol (HDL) levels in your blood.

Aggrenox is a drug that inhibits thrombus formation and is used for reducing the risk of stroke in patients who have previously had a stroke due to a blood clot in the brain. It is also used to reduce the risk of stroke in patients who have had transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) (eg, "warning stroke" or "mini-stroke" that produces stroke-like symptoms but no lasting damage).

Vytorin is used for treating high cholesterol along with a cholesterol-lowering diet. Vytorin helps block absorption of cholesterol from food and at the same time reduces the cholesterol naturally produced in the body, thus targeting both sources of cholesterol.
